The greenest distribution centre in Germany
Levi Strauss & Co
Logistics & Office
With the construction of the new distribution centre of Levi Strauss & Co, Delta is building Germany's first Cradle-to-Cradle® optimised logistics project. The building comprises 70,000 m² and will be leased by Levi Strauss & Co. from 2023 for a period of 20 years.
The operation will be highly automated and will employ 650 people. In this project, we apply all our experience with C2C. It goes without saying that C2C certified materials are used and the building is Design for Re-use. The materials are being catalogued in a materials passport.
Sustainability has universal relevance. We are therefore very pleased that our holistic approach to logistics is now also being applied in Germany. We see the building in Dorsten as an important step, after which we want to take many more steps in the future.

Obviously, much attention has been paid to optimising the air quality in order to create a pleasant and productive working environment. Quadrant4's design ensures optimal social interaction and inspiration and includes numerous communal and green areas. Upon completion, the distribution centre will be LEED Platinum and WELL certified.
The project is being realised on the site of the Wulfen 1/2 mine shafts, which were decommissioned in 1958 and 1959 and dismantled in 2003. The Industriepark 'Große Heide Wulfen' is being developed on this site in the municipality of Dorsten, North Rhine-Westphalia. The park is ideally located at Bundestraße 58 a stone's throw away from motorways 31 and 43.
At DELTA, we have followed the C2C® model almost exclusively since 2003, putting the future of the planet at the heart of our projects. Sustainability, health and profitability always form an inseparable unit.
